Cylindrically-symmetric equilibria of two-component plasma are composed which describe magnetic flux tubes. Plasma is represented as superposition of two charged compressible fluids which interact only via their common electromagnetic field. The total electric charge density is assumed to be equal to zero. Both fluids rotate about a common axis that produces current densities of the components which serves as the source of magnetic field. Equilibria of rotating fluids this field under magnetic, centrifugal and pressure forces are composed.
